Would you like to show the world that nuisance wildlife does not have to be trapped,
relocated or euthanized to be controlled? Do you have common sense?

Bats, squirrels, raccoons, snakes, opossum and other wild critters move into attics,
crawl spaces and other hard to reach places.

Our job is to get wildlife out and keep
wildlife out. It is very fun and rewarding, but it is also hard work.
It is a super-niche career
with upward advancements available.

than as a biologist or zoo keeper - while helping wildlife and people in the process.

are what make us different from other wildlife control companies -
along with doing the job right the first time.

For you, this will be a career change and a change of life style.

You will be in charge of giving clients their peace of mind and home back to
them while humanely evicting wildlife back into their own eco-system and same territory.
You will do this by fixing residential and commercial buildings. You will be successfully
doing what most people in the wildlife removal industry say cannot be done.

world a better place and feel as though you accomplished something for yourself, wildlife
and clients. It is not just a job, it is a way of life.

If you want to be in good physical and mental shape,
work outdoors and do something each day that you can be proud of, this may be for you.

What To Expect As A Wildlife Whisperer Field Professional

Please keep in mind, this career isn't for everybody, but it is the only career and way of life for others.

They wouldn't have it any other way - and neither would we.

Working Conditions & Requirements

Working with nuisance wildlife means being ready for just about any condition you can imagine -
from driving on ice and snow when it is 20 degrees below, to crawling in a cave or climbing a 40'
ladder to access a chimney when it is 115".

As a Humane Wildlife Management Professional field operator and handy man - or woman,
you can expect to spend 80% of your physically demanding days on a ladder and a roof in
all weather conditions doing simple to complex repairs in what can be considered dangerous and difficult to reach areas.

The humane way of wildlife control is not usually the quick and easy way.

Upper body strength for ladder control and being very agile is mandatory.

If you are scared of multi-tasking, responsibility, being asked to use common sense to
solve problems on your own, having your work re-checked for quality control, taking hundreds
of photos of your before and after work is completed, reading a lot in order to learn more about wildlife,
working alone, hard work, wild animals, getting dirty, hot or cold weather, rain, snow,
talking to people, heights, and having intense checks run on your background, drug use
and driving record - this job may not be for you.

You will typically work alone and in all weather conditions.

Sample Job Responsibilities

As a wildlife professional, you need to be ready for just about anything, have the proper tools in hand,
and be prepared to go where wildlife goes - some things you'll need to be ready for are as follows:

Extensive work on roofs, in attics and crawl spaces

Doing alterations on a roof mandates that you are not afraid of heights.
Take a look at a two story house and imagine yourself on the roof.
Three out of ten people who think they are not afraid of heights are
wrong and therefore wasted a lot of time and money thinking this was a career for them.

Working in confined spaces

Climbing and lifting tall ladders to reach extreme heights

Taking care of 1 to 2 dozen clients at a time, including scheduling jobs

Working with tools and lifting heavy objects

Working throughout the year in all kinds of weather

Working evenings and weekends

Working with "dangerous" animals

Subsequent job requirements include:

No fear of heights or climbing tall ladders

No fear of confined spaces or dark environments

The ability to fit through small holes

No fear of interacting with people or working with others

The ability to lift your own weight

Be 250 pounds or less due to OSHA regulations on ladder weight limits

Please note the below photos and the green arrow pointing to a frequently repaired animal entry area.
We use hook ladders, ladder stand-offs and tall ladders at atypical angles to accomplish our missions.

Compensation & Supplies

Field Professional pay is
up to you because we prefer to have contractors vs employees.
Your construction skills,
quick learning, willingness to further educate yourself about wildlife via extra-curricular
reading, multi-tasking, leadership, self-starting, emergency call availability,
and organizational skills will make you a considerable amount of money.

Background Check & Drug Testing

You will be required to undergo a background investigation,
drug testing and a D.M.V. investigation.

Background blemishes will not exclude you,
but will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
